According to our latest research, the global Rotary Steerable Drilling System market size will reach USD 557 million in 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.4% over the analysis period.
The rotary steerable system (RSS) is a directional drilling system that performs the directional function in real time while the drill string is rotating during drilling. It is a major change in directional drilling technology since the 1990s. RSS has the characteristics of low friction and torsional resistance, high drilling speed, low cost, short well construction period, smooth well trajectory, easy control and extended horizontal section length. It is considered to be the development direction of modern directional drilling technology. The rotary steerable system is one of the most important cutting-edge equipment in the field of oil drilling engineering today. It is also the core technology and major equipment for realizing the development of oil drilling in the direction of digitalization, informatization and automation. It can be widely used in the directional operations of special drilling processes such as ultra-deep wells, horizontal wells, large displacement wells, and branch wells in land and marine environments.
The report mainly counts the market situation of autonomous rotary steerable system engineering technology services.
There are two types of rotary steerable drilling system, including Push-the-bit rotary steerable drilling system and Point-the-bit rotary steerable drilling system. The leading type is Push-the-bit rotary steerable drilling system, with a market share over 65%. In terms of application, rotary steerable drilling system is mainly used in onshore and offshore. Onshore is the largest segment, accounting for nearly 70%.
In-depth analysis of the driving factors of the rotary steerable system market
I. Technological innovation: performance breakthrough and intelligent upgrade
Core technology breakthrough
Drilling efficiency leap: The rotary steerable system (RSS) achieves real-time guidance through downhole closed-loop control, significantly improving the drilling speed.
Complex geological adaptability: Integrate geological guidance (LWD) and measurement while drilling (MWD) technology to achieve the "intelligent cruise" function.
Application scenario expansion
Unconventional oil and gas development: RSS has become the core equipment for the development of unconventional resources such as shale oil and gas, tight oil and gas. Deep sea and ultra-deep well demand: RSS has the advantages of low friction and strong trajectory controllability, and is widely used in marine and ultra-deep well projects, promoting the expansion of market scale.
II. Energy demand growth: driven by unconventional oil and gas and deep sea development
Global energy structure transformation
Shale oil and gas revolution: US shale oil/gas production continues to grow, with shale oil production reaching 469 million tons and shale gas production reaching 836.9 billion cubic meters in 2023. As a key technology for reducing costs and increasing efficiency, RSS directly promotes the increase of single well EUR.
Deep-sea resource development: With the depletion of terrestrial oil and gas resources, deep-sea oil and gas development has become a new focus. RSS significantly reduces friction and torsional resistance in deep-sea drilling and improves operating efficiency.
China's energy security strategy
Domestic substitution demand: China is rich in unconventional oil and gas resources, but RSS has long relied on imports. The breakthrough of domestic systems such as Jingwei Linghang breaks the foreign technology monopoly and improves the security of the local supply chain.
Policy support: The government has included RSS in the field of high-end equipment manufacturing and promoted the localization process through policies such as tax incentives and R&D subsidies.
3. Policy and environmental protection: Technology iteration under dual drive
Energy security policy
International competition background: As the global energy geopolitical game intensifies, governments of various countries regard RSS as a key technology to ensure energy security.
China's "14th Five-Year Plan": It clearly proposes to promote the localization of oil and gas exploration and development equipment, and RSS is listed as a key breakthrough direction.
Environmental protection regulations promote
Low-carbon development trend: RSS reduces carbon emissions and environmental risks by reducing drilling cycles and accident rates. Green technology standards: The European Union, North America and other places have introduced strict environmental protection regulations, forcing companies to adopt clean drilling technologies such as RSS.
IV. Cost-effectiveness: cost reduction and efficiency improvement and long-term benefits
Short-term cost reduction
Shortened drilling cycle: RSS increases drilling efficiency by more than 50% and reduces the cost of a single well by 20%-30%. For example, after Shengli Oilfield used RSS, the single well cycle was shortened.
Decreasing accident rate: The real-time guidance function of RSS reduces the deviation of wellbore trajectory and reduces the risk of accidents such as stuck drill and leakage.
Increasing long-term benefits
Increasing recovery rate: RSS accurately controls the trajectory of the drill bit, increases the exposed area of the oil and gas reservoir, and improves the recovery rate.
Extending the life of the oil well: By optimizing the wellbore trajectory, reducing formation damage and extending the production cycle of the oil well.
The growth of the rotary steerable system market is jointly driven by technological innovation, energy demand, policy support, cost-effectiveness and market competition. In the future, intelligence, greening and domestic substitution will become the core trends, and the rise of the Chinese market will reshape the global RSS competition landscape. Enterprises need to seize the technological iteration and policy dividends to drive market breakthroughs with innovation.
